LAFAYETTE (KRON) — An 80-foot tree in a backyard in Lafayette fell Thursday morning, crashing down just feet away from a neighbor’s home.

A KRON4 viewer sent a video of the falling tree. This massive tree fell on Carol Lane.

Roots have nothing to hold on to as soil becomes more saturated.

KRON4 is seeing many fallen trees around the Bay Area, following the round of wet weather.
